RESEARCH GROUP MISSION

Developing and characterizing processes of interest for efficient, low environmental impact, renewable energy generation, energy storage, and energy-efficient industrial applications. Building and operating experimental and prototype plants. Flue gas and biogas treatment processes, gas separation, storage, plant technologies for renewable sources and cogeneration.

ACTIVITY FIELDS

  • Renewable source plants (biomass, solar photovoltaic and thermodynamic, solar cooling, wind power)
  • Flue gas purification processes, biogas upgrading to biomethane
  • Co2 capture processes
  • Innovative, higher-efficiency cogeneration plants
  • District heating/tele-cooling
  • Micro-cogeneration plants
  • Thermal storage processes and plants, including seasonal storage
  • Hydrogen technologies (production, transportation, storage, end uses)
  • Design and implementation of prototypes, experimental and demonstration facilities
  • Experimentation of multi-energy systems
  • Power to gas (e.g. biological methanation)
